I find the exercise of writing down all my regrets before Rosh Hashanah rather easy. If, like me, you’re the kind of person with a high capacity for guilt, you probably find that task easy, too, since we already felt badly about it during the year. I regret contributing to any gossip. I regret listening to any gossip. I regret not helping individuals or organizations more than I could have. I regret not calling more. I regret not answering the phone. I regret resorting to texts and emails. I regret the rudeness of looking at my phone in the middle of a conversation. I regret all the times that I rolled my eyes. I regret any time I spoke more than I listened, both in person and online.
My piece for Rosh Hashanah this year continues at Kveller.com and focuses on switching away from the guilt and regrets (for SOME of the time this High Holiday season) and putting time into remembering what you did right this year. I explain why in the article!
Hope to see you there.
